The room is furnished to enable guests to enjoy a meal at home or relax in comfy sofas and chairs watching the flat-screen TV with DVD player or listening to the music on the iPod with docking station provided. The kitchen area is nicely divided from the sitting/dining area with a partition wall.

A key feature of this stylish room is the bespoke hand made kitchen units with granite worktops, which conceal the Neff washing machine, dryer, and dishwasher. There is also a ceramic hob with extractor fan and electric double oven at waist height with all the equipment, crockery and cutlery required by the chef of the family.

Outside

Bunny Cottage’s front door opens onto the pavement with the beach across the adjacent road. There is unrestricted parking in the alley opposite on a first-come, first-served basis, or parking permits available for the nearby public car parks.

A spacious first floor sun terrace with garden furniture and planters is the ideal place to soak up the sun and enjoy views of the sea to one side and the high street to the other.

The beauty of the cottage’s location is you are within walking distance of both the shops and the beach, so head out for the day with a picnic basket and a bucket and spade and you’re good to go. If you want to get active, then there are loads of opportunities for sailing, cycling, walking and golf with Aldeburgh Marshes, a fantastic destination for a scenic hike. Jump in the car for days out to attractions such as Snape Maltings, Framlingham Castle, Sutton Hoo, RSPB Minsmere and Yoxford Antiques Centre and Gardens. Bunny Cottage enjoys a superb location which is literally a hop, skip and a jump from the beach and amenities of Aldeburgh.

The popular, vibrant seaside town of Aldeburgh is famous for its culture, traditional feel and one of the best fish and chip shops in the country! Aldeburgh and Snape Maltings are home to one of the world’s greatest music festivals and has been named as one of the top 50 places to live in Britain. Crag Path runs along the seafront dividing the beautiful pebbly beach from the unspoilt pastel-coloured seafront properties and the town. The beach is a popular place for groups and couples to enjoy the wonderful fish and chips throughout the summer months. The town is steeped in history and has become a wonderful town for shopping with a good mixture of independent and chain stores to enjoy. The town also offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants or why not buy some freshly caught fish from the huts on the seafront and cook up your own feast at home. For those wishing for a more action-packed holiday there is excellent walking, cycling, sailing and golf at Aldeburgh. Growing in popularity you will want to return to Aldeburgh again and again!

    Very well stocked with crockery, glasses, cutlery, cooking utensils etc. Nicely decorated throughout with a lot of care and attention to detail. I loved the upstairs 'reading room', a lovely touch. Lovely comfy bed and we had a bathroom each, blissful! We had beautiful hot weather and we sat on the roof terrace a lot, looking out to the sea. We enjoyed the '80's Carnival theme very much and I was able to catch up with some friends and reminisce about our youth in the '70's and early '80's, when I lived and worked in Aldeburgh. I always love coming back and being able to stay in Bunny Cottage was the icing on the cake! Thank you Jo & Rob.

    The cottage had everything we needed for our stay. The only downside, the door was difficult to lock/unlock. Perhaps we would recommend a new shower head and hose to both bathrooms and a new plug for the bath. Saying that we would book again .

  • Martyn

    With the beach,shops,coffee shops and restaurants so close, there is everything you need just a few minutes walk from the cottage.
